X²: The Threat

You have to be in the same sector as the satellite. Bring up the sector map and zoom in on the object you want to watch with the Home key. You can also switch the video feed off by pressing K.

NB: Many people ask why the video feed doesn't work when you are not in the same sector as the satellite. The reason is that current PCs simply wouldn't be able to cope with calculating video output for both the sector you are in and the one where the satellite is.
